Sam Vilain 35243577ab sha1_file.c: resolve confusion EACCES vs EPERM
An earlier commit 916d081 (Nicer error messages in case saving an object
to db goes wrong, 2006-11-09) confused EACCES with EPERM, the latter of
which is an unlikely error from mkstemp().

Joey Hess 65117abc04 sha1_file: avoid bogus "file exists" error message
This avoids the following misleading error message:

error: unable to create temporary sha1 filename ./objects/15: File exists

mkstemp can fail for many reasons, one of which, ENOENT, can occur if
the directory for the temp file doesn't exist. create_tmpfile tried to
handle this case by always trying to mkdir the directory, even if it
already existed. This caused errno to be clobbered, so one cannot tell
why mkstemp really failed, and it truncated the buffer to just the
directory name, resulting in the strange error message shown above.

Note that in both occasions that I've seen this failure, it has not been
due to a missing directory, or bad permissions, but some other, unknown
mkstemp failure mode that did not occur when I ran git again. This code
could perhaps be made more robust by retrying mkstemp, in case it was a
transient failure.

Matt McCutchen 1510dbe380 git checkout: don't warn about unborn branch if -f is already passed
I think it's unnecessary to warn that the checkout has been forced due to an
unborn current branch if -f has been explicitly passed.  For one project, I am
using git-new-workdir to create workdirs from a bare repository whose HEAD is
set to an unborn branch, and this warning started to irritate me.

SZEDER Gábor c07838371b bash: offer refs instead of filenames for 'git revert'
The completion script for 'git revert' currently offers options and

command line, but a single commit.  Therefore, it's more sane to offer
refs instead.

On POSIX, rename() can replace files that are not writable. On Windows,
however, read-only files cannot be replaced without additional efforts:
We have to make the destination writable first.

Junio C Hamano 4b4e26d21f Teach ls-files --with-tree=<tree> to work with options other than -c
Originally --with-tree=<tree> was designed for the sole purpose of
checking if a given pathspec makes sense as a parameter to git-commit
using it in conjunction with --error-unmatch.  It had logic to avoid
showing the same entry (one came from the original index, another from the
overlayed tree) twice so that it works with -c (i.e. "show-cached"), but
otherwise it was not designed to work with the flags such as -m, -d, etc.

This teaches the same logic to cover the codepath for -m and -d.

Linus Torvalds e9854a7672 date/time: do not get confused by fractional seconds
The date/time parsing code was confused if the input time HH:MM:SS is
followed by fractional seconds.  Since we do not record anything finer
grained than seconds, we could just drop fractional part, but there is a
twist.

We have taught people that not just spaces but dot can be used as word
separators when spelling things like:

    $ git log --since 2.days
    $ git show @{12:34:56.7.days.ago}

and we shouldn't mistake "7" in the latter example as a fraction and
discard it.

The rules are:

 - valid days of month/mday are always single or double digits.

 - valid years are either two or four digits

   No, we don't support the year 600 _anyway_, since our encoding is based
   on the UNIX epoch, and the day we worry about the year 10,000 is far
   away and we can raise the limit to five digits when we get closer.

 - Other numbers (eg "600 days ago") can have any number of digits, but
   they cannot start with a zero. Again, the only exception is for
   two-digit numbers, since that is fairly common for dates ("Dec 01" is
   not unheard of)

So that means that any milli- or micro-second would be thrown out just
because the number of digits shows that it cannot be an interesting date.

A milli- or micro-second can obviously be a perfectly fine number
according to the rules above, as long as it doesn't start with a '0'. So
if we have

	12:34:56.123

then that '123' gets parsed as a number, and we remember it. But because
it's bigger than 31, we'll never use it as such _unless_ there is
something after it to trigger that use.

So you can say "12:34:56.123.days.ago", and because of the "days", that
123 will actually be meaninful now.

Brandon Casey 3289b9dec5 t7700: test that 'repack -a' packs alternate packed objects
Previously, when 'repack -a' was called and there were no packs in the local
repository without a .keep file, the repack would fall back to calling
pack-objects with '--unpacked --incremental'. This resulted in the created

store. Test that this specific case has been fixed.

Junio C Hamano fa7b3c2f75 checkout: Fix "initial checkout" detection
Earlier commit 5521883 (checkout: do not lose staged removal, 2008-09-07)
tightened the rule to prevent switching branches from losing local
changes, so that staged removal of paths can be protected, while
attempting to keep a loophole to still allow a special case of switching
out of an un-checked-out state.

However, the loophole was made a bit too tight, and did not allow
switching from one branch (in an un-checked-out state) to check out
another branch.

The change to builtin-checkout.c in this commit loosens it to allow this,
by not insisting the original commit and the new commit to be the same.

It also introduces a new function, is_index_unborn (and an associated
macro, is_cache_unborn), to check if the repository is truly in an
un-checked-out state more reliably, by making sure that $GIT_INDEX_FILE
did not exist when populating the in-core index structure.  A few places
the earlier commit 5521883 added the check for the initial checkout
condition are updated to use this function.

Jeff King 0b38227f28 commit: Fix stripping of patch in verbose mode.
When the "-v" option is given, we put diff of what is to be committed into
the commit template, and then strip it back out again after the user has
edited it.

We used to look for the diff by searching for the "diff --git a/"
header. With diff.mnemonicprefix set in the configuration, however, this
pattern does not match.  The pattern is loosened to cover this case.

Also, if the user puts their own diff in the message (e.g., as a sample
output), then we will accidentally trigger the pattern, removing part of
their output.

We can avoid doing this stripping altogether if the user didn't use "-v"
in the first place, so we know that any match we find will be a false
positive.
